whats the first sign of mc? sorry to ask ...

hi ..
so sorry to ask but i really want to be aware of the signs. I believe i had a mc very early on in my life (when i was far to young).. but right now i was posative i was pregnant, but doctors test says otherwise...

i KNOW i wasnt imagining all the symptoms... and am now feeling very harsh cramps, which i never really get near my period....

please could someone let me know what to watch out for. so sorry if its hard for you to say.
thank you so much to anyone who replys'....
its just that im not convinced an egg wasnt fertalised.

  • Hey, I had a really early mc, probably when I was around 5 weeks. I knew it was different from a normal period as I started bleeding quite heavily very quickly and the pain was quite intense. Also, the bleeding seemed to last a bit longer than my usual period. No painkillers seemed to ease the pain. At the time I didn't think it was a mc, but looking back and working out my dates I almost certainly know it was. Having said all this, I am now 30 weeks pregnant with a little girl, so there's always hope. xx

  • Hiya, i have had 2 mc's and both times ive just started bleeding without pain, then gone on to have pain so bad that i couldnt walk and was screeming in agony. Both mc's i had to stay overnight in hospital. If you are miscarrying, you will deffinately know about it xx

  • my mc i had no warning, i just went to the toilet and when i wiped there was blood, went to a&e and they tested my urine and said i was still pregnant but probably having a mc. I bled like a very light period for 4 days, no cramps or clots (that i noticed) and then a week later i did a test and it was negative and that was it..... Everyone is different and i was only 5/6 weeks pregnant.

    Hope that helps. x

  • Hi
    I had a D&C last Wednesday after I found out the week before Christmas that I'd had a missed miscarriage. I'm 38 and this was my first pregnancy, absolutely devastated as I feel that this was my one and only chance of having a baby. I also feel that now the D&C has been done I'm meant to "get on" with life, How?. Any advise on how to move on would be appreciated and I send all my love to all of you who have gone through the same experience. But I will say that the D&C was painless and I'm glad I opted for that option.
